Place the lever in roll up position while holding the awning down, slide the pull strap to center and slowly allow it to roll up under spring tension. If it won't roll up, you either don't have the lever in roll-up position or the spring needs re-wound or replaced. If it just needs re-wound, 8 to 12 turns max on the spring.
Try using a block of soft pine and rubber hammer on opposite end. If there are no set dress holding it in place. A few gentle taps should put in place. Then you may want to put in your own set screw to prevent from reoccurring!

Loosen holding screws and unclip both arms
Flick the up/down lever then pull on black cord as you walk back away from RV
Slide both side arms up main arms, lock in place and then tension the awning and tighten lock screws
Release lock clips on main arms and slide them up [ halfway each side is probably best for your awning]
Support legs can be left attached to RV [safest] or can be separated and stand upright, using tent pegs into ground to secure or awning tie downs
more than likely u lost the spring tension. whatever you do. do not try to take it apart, if there is any tension at all. it will come undone and you can and will lose fingers. you can wind it up but need to know what the manufacturers name is and size of awning...
I would syphon out the water and tighten the awning. If the fabric has stretched too much from the sagging, you may need to add a stabilizer or replace it.
